When people ask me to name typical British dishes,I have,however,struggled to think of an answer.Yes,we do have our own national dishes.We do have fish and chips,and we have other dishes like roast dinner and shepherd's pie.But how much do we actually eat them?
Fish and chips,is made up of battered(绞碎的)fish and chips,which is often accompanied by a thick paste(酱). The majority of British people really do love this dish but it is not something that we would eat,say,on a weekly basis.It's also not usually something that we would cook at home.The British people associate this dish with the seaside and it's something that will usually be eaten on a day trip there,bought from a takeaway fish and chip shop.
Another favourite British dish is roast dinner.This is made up of roast meat,usually chicken or beef, accompanied by roast vegetables and a meat sauce called gravy(肉汁).It is usually eaten on a Sunday,perhaps for a special family dinner.It can either be cooked at home or eaten in a traditional pub.We also eat a more elaborate version of this for our Christmas dinner.
Although we do have our traditional dishes,our diet has been greatly influenced by other countries.You can find a wide range of international foods in the supermarket or varieties of different restaurants on our high streets.A famous saying amongst British people is that our national dish is now chicken tikka masala,a dish which is heavily influenced by Indian cuisine.
Don't expect to be served a traditional dish if you ever get invited for dinner at a British family's home!
(1)What do you know about fish and chips?
A.It is a home cooking for the British people.
B.It is a seaside dish eaten on a day trip there.

(4)考查写作意图。根据第一段中的“When people ask me to name typical British dishes, I have, however, struggled to think of an answer.当人们要求我说出典型的英国菜肴时,我却很难想出一个答案。 ”以及最后一段“ Don't expect to be served a traditional dish if you ever get invited for dinner at a British family's home!”如果你被邀请到英国家庭的家里吃饭,别指望会得到一份传统的佳肴。可知本文在探索英国的传统菜肴,即国菜是什么?但是通过一系列的探索,发现英国没有具体的某一道传统国菜,故选A。

We often carry a lot of things when we're traveling.On long ones we carry things like passports, visas, etc. Though traveling can be fun, we're likely to misplace these things and even lose them because of the excitement of the journey or being too busy or tired. So how can we carry valuable things safely while traveling?
Place most of it in a wallet and put the wallet in your main suitcase or bag with a lock-and-key system. Don't open it until you reach your destination (目的地). Guess how much money you'll need on the journey, and place this money in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket.
Next, instead of wearing your jewelry, you can carry your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or bag.Many people think that since the purse is always going to be in their hands, it'll remain safe. But other things like tickets, phone numbers, keys, etc., are all going to go in there. So you're often going to open your purse for something or the other. What if you just drop it?
Then remember to hook (钩住) the keys. You get those really nice key chains these days that come with a big dog-hook.
Use one of these to carry your keys. This way, you won't leave the keys in a restaurant or any other place.
Hope all the above tips for traveling will help you.
A. So you'll know what to bring.
B. It's a kind of vacation, but without your parents.
C. Spend money from this wallet till you get to your destination.
D. Firstly, distribute (分开) your money if you're traveling alone.
E. You can hook the key chain to your jeans or your handbag.
F. On short trips we take things like money, jewelry (首饰), house keys, etc.
G. Don't carry it in your purse, just in case somebody is quick in stealing your purse.

【题目】阅读理解
It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.
The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries(食品杂货), saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.
I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.
People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity(人性)as a whole. And it has influenced(影响)us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.
(1)Why was the bike so important to the couple?
A.The man's job was bike racing.
B.It was their only possession.
C.It was a nice Kona 18 speed.
D.They used it for work and daily life.
(2)We can infer from the text that ____________.
A.the couple worked 60 hours a week.
B.people were busy before Christmas
C.the stranger brought over the bike
D.life was hard for the young family.
(3)How did people get to know the couple's problem?
A.From radio broadcasts.
B.From a newspaper.
C.From TV news.
D.From a stranger.
